ASMBS: VTE Risk Persists for a Year After Bariatric Surgery

Another result of fat person surgery that leads to death.
"The risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) after bariatric surgery persists for at least a year after the procedure, according to a review of medical records of 17,000 patients.

The incidence of VTE rose from 0.88% during hospitalization to 3.42% at 12 months...

The rates of pulmonary embolism and deep vein thrombosis (DVT) also increased out to a year...

Several reports in the medical literature have cited VTE as a leading cause of death after bariatric surgery."
Oops.

Time to think about the right way to lose weight?
